Two rescue dogs have had cosmetic surgery to help make them more attractive to new owners, it has been claimed.
Morgan and Emma, both chocolate labradors, have undergone surgery costing £1200 in a bid to find them a new home.
The dogs were left with huge sagging folds of skin after years of overbreeding, which left their mammary glands nearly touching the ground.
Staff at the Wallace Kennels in Stondon Massey, near Brentwood, Essex, said it was putting off potential owners.
So they decided to give the pets the cosmetic breast reductions to make them look better.
Shelter co-ordinator Teresa Bartholomew said: "It is very unusual. You don't get many people having cosmetic surgery on dogs and we could be one of the first. But if we hadn't had it done, we would not have been able to rehome them."
